Answer 1

I've taken them...

I took it with my first, second and third and didn't believe the results, so I went to buy the name brand 2 pack and all came out the same!

Believe me they work!

Try more s*x GOOD LUCK!

Answer 2

The dollar store brand works just as good as the expensive ones from the drugstore.  

Sounds like you are not pregnant.  When the time is right, it will happen.  

I am also very fertile, and have had a child.  I have been unprotected for nine months now without a pregnancy!  Its all about timing . . .

Answer 3

no...buy a better brand

Answer 4

i wouldnt know about the 1.00$ ones....but basically the others are over priced. its not a complicated product to make actually. So they are making alot of money off it. probably not the best out there, but i would say it could have quiet a bit of accuracy.

I've taken e.p.t and i couldnt read the darn thing i couldnt tell what it said. i took First Response and that one is super easy to read. I wasnt trying to concieve, im only 20...so to get that negative was alife saver for me (E.P.T had me scared since i couldnt tell)

Answer 5

they work just as good as the name brand tests.....

Answer 6

alright so don't judge me but I did work at a bank that was next door to a "dollar store" before my "dollar store" pregnancy test came back POSITIVE :OP Now I stay at home with my precious baby girl...so they worked for me.

Answer 7

I have and it said neg and it was neg.  

I've never taken a test that has said pos and has been pos (thank god+

good for you though.    

I guess just don't under estimate them I've taken a lot in my day.

Brands have nothing to do with anything, if you are curious go the doc.

Answer 8

im not a girl but 1.00$ test seems kinda inaccurate to me

Answer 9

i have taken 2 from there they all work the same all your paying for is a name brand. but like they always say you can have a false negative but never a false positive. if you have taken 5 i'd say chances are your not pregnant i wouldn't waste money on the expensive ones.

Answer 10

I took two and they both came back positive. That was the best spent 2 dollars of my life!

Answer 11

i don't think the brand is that much of a difference, honestly.

you CAN try to go for the name brands, but if you want to be sure you should go to the doctors and get checked there.

be sure that not everyone comes out positive in the urine tests at the doctors either, i heard the blood tests are more accurate and some people actually only come out positive on the blood tests.  

Answer 12

You can't blame the test...if you got 5 negatives, chances are you're not pregnant. They are supposed to be just fine for testing, just not as sensitive as the more expensive ones, so you're better off waiting until you're at least a few days late to test with one.

Answer 13

OMG! I just got back from the Dollar store and I was going to pick up a pregnancy test:) There's a really helpful list online, and it says EPT isn't a very good test. Here's a link, I ended up buying mine from CVS:)

Baby dust!!

Answer 14

ugh yea a pregnancy test is a pregnancy test. I took mine when i didnt even know i was pregnant they work prob just not pregnant yet.

Answer 15

...hum?

Answer 16

i used one from the dollar store and found out with my son... Most are at 50ml hcg sensitivitie.

Answer 17

one a $1 test problemy wont be right and no beacuse im a 12 year old boy lol

Answer 18

Yeah I took the dollar store pregnancy tests with both of my pregnancy and they worked for me with my second pregnancy the dollar store one showed up before my ept test did weird huh?  I would say they work though!!

Answer 19

that's all i used with my first pregnancy and they were always correct. i dont know how far past ovulation you are but maybe your taking them too soon?  if you know when you ovulated then at least wait 14 days (easier said then done, i know!) but if by then you still get a negative just test after you've missed your period and if its still negative try a different test to ease your mind.  good luck and lots of baby dust your way!

Answer 20

I've used them and if I got a BFP I then bought a "more accurate" test from target. Both times they were right for me. Around here where I live there is actually a free pregnancy counseling place that actually uses the tests from there, and they always get results. I haven't had one that neg. and was actually pos. they were always a yes or no for me.

Answer 21

actually the dollar stores pregnancy test are pretty accurate.I say if you have taken 5 already chances are you are not pregnant or you testing to soon.i wouldnt recommen wasting 15 bucks on a ept
